ACT 2

Scene 4

(At the bar in the hotel)
{Entered Ubong, Mr. Walter and Mr. Henry}

(Celebrating Ubong for his victory in the game)

MR. HENRY

(Stretching forth his hand to shake Ubong) You played very well. I’m impressed.

UBONG

Thank you Mr. Henry. You weren’t bad yourself. Challenging you was like a dream come true. You have exceptional skills. I thought I was losing not until the game was over.

MR. HENRY

(Giving Ubong a suspicious smile) I was the one caught off guard. Your maneuvering was unbelievable. Mr. Walter, you have a star in your grib. He’s truly the best. I’ll be back in two weeks’ time. I’ll double the bet and you’ll double yours. Deal?

MR. WALTER

(Giving Ubong a nod).Deal.

MR. HENRY

Great. My boss will be thrilled, especially after knowing how horrible I lost. So Ubong, I hope you’ll bring your best. I love a good challenge.

UBONG

I will do my best sir. Do take care as you leave.

MR. HENRY

Thanks. See you in two weeks. Take care Mr. Walter

MR. WALTER

Yes have a good day.

{Exit Mr. Henry}

Weldone Ubong. Prep yourself. Two weeks will be grand.

UBONG

I will BOSS.

MR. WALTER

(Signaling one of his guards) take this. This is part of your pay for today. The rest is to cover part of your outstanding. Spend it wisely. And buy something good for that wife of yours. In two weeks you will become a millionaire.

UBONG

Thanks BOSS, I won’t let you down

MR. WALTER

Yeah, you dare not. Doubling the bet will cost me so much you better not screw it up

UBONG

I won’t BOSS

MR. WALTER

Good. You can leave now

UBONG

Thanks BOSS.

{Exit Walter}

(Enter Ayo)

AYO

Was that the man?

UBONG

Yes. Mr. Henry.

AYO

Wow, Henry huh? I hear we won

UBONG

We?

AYO

Yes, we. Or aren’t we the dream team again?
(Both laughing)
So where are we celebrating

UBONG

Well, I hear of a new club that just open, let’s go and check it out

AYO

Yeah. That’s what I’m talking about
